I'm not sure what the issue is here: the need for a hardware dongle or the EULA. As for the latter, I have this directly from someone at X-Rite responsible for monitoring compliance. The EULA does not restrict consultants making custom profiles for individual customers for a fee. It is intended to prohibit the unauthorized use of the product for mass distribution of profiles, for example by download from a website. She told me that this use is permissible as well by the payment of a separate licensing fee. This makes sense and is fair, except in the mind of those who do not believe in the existence of intellectual property, which is a lot of people nowadays.
On the dongle nuisance. Some of us have gotten used to this, as we have to haul around a veritable dongle "zoo" to service or demonstrate all the different applications our customers might use or need. A tip: Buy some USB hubs and keep one in your briefcase. Nothing worse than running out of ports on a job site as one tries to plug in three dongles, and a couple of instruments and having to find a solution in a strange neighborhood with the nearest store miles away. Of course that never happened to me.
